Word on the street is that you had a SO, though. You and Tom weren't just being SOBs, were you? Does she really allow you to chop video game wood all night? I suppose if she did control whether or not you chop video game wood, it would be symbolic of another type of wood being chopped.

I played a little bit of Gears of War 2 just so it didn't feel neglected. I played some more of Fallout 3 last night, but it's depressing me how hard I'm finding it to make my way through the early parts of the game. I love the ambient sound effects and music, though. Gears of War 2 looks like it will be fun as well, though it would be more fun to play through with someone else.

Now I should go try Fable II and see about this wood I keep hearing about.
